After Action Report

The Trail Blazers buried the Mavericks 138-107. The Mavericks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. The Trail Blazers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; Mavericks' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Trail Blazers locker room is humming, and it showed. Trail Blazers' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Garbage time started early.

What tipped it

  • Trail Blazers · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Trail Blazers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
